I crossed them out with my trusty Sharpie, which I now keep in my purse at all times.

There we go. Perfect.

That’s the closest shot I got, but the train was a bit bumpy. (I didn’t want to do it while we were at a stop. The MBTA is strict — people weren’t allowed to take pictures until very recently. Still, I didn’t want to press my luck.)

Unwarranted quotes are bad.

I felt like defacing a Budweiser ad that said Beantown on it. I hate the word Beantown. I don’t know of anybody who lives in Boston and actually likes it.

But I could be wrong. Does anyone from Boston out there like Beantown?

Aside from grammatical problems with those quotes, I think quotes actually undermine the credibility of the service provider. While other companies can simply state the fact that their certification services offer recipients the ability to teach around the world, this company needed to go out and find someone who would state this fact. And allegedly, at that. They did not care to state their source!

But, even more than that, I find it hilarious that a program aimed at teaching people how to teach English contains a grammatical error. How coincidental!🙂
